Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of controlling a supply of feed water into a boiler, a system for controlling a supply of feed water into a boiler, a computer program and a computer-readable medium.
  • the present invention concerns a strategy for controlling the water level in a boiler subject to the shrink and swell phenomena. These phenomena can occur when there is a change in the steam load on the boiler (the main disturbance in the system). Such a change in steam load will affect the steam pressure in the boiler which in turn affects the volume of steam suspended in the boiler water. This leads to a so-called inverse response of the water level (non-minimum phase behaviour) where the initial response of the level is opposite to the long-term behaviour.
  • a water level control strategy is designed to accommodate an adverse effect of the water levels inverse response to the disturbance.
  • Boiler drum level control systems are known in the prior art.
  • US 9476584 describes a boiler drum level control system using the position of a bypass valve configured to control the steam flow.
  • the controller commands the feed-water flow and heat input to the evaporator based on sensor signals.
  • the sensor signals are generated by sensors that measure fluid flow, steam flow, drum pressure, drum temperature, and bypass position.
  • the drum pressure may be measured directly by detecting the position of the by-pass valve providing leading indicators of a pressure change in the boiler which may result in an adjustment of the water level in the drum.
  • JP 2504939 describes a boiler level control device controlling the opening degree of a bypass valve for branching surplus steam to the condenser thereby bypassing the steam turbine.
  • Pressure sensors are used for determining the steam flow.
  • US 10185332 describes a boiler drum level control method using the difference between a steam flow signal and a feed water flow signal.
  • a transient controller calculates the gain parameter based on the absolute flow difference. Additional parameters include a bypass valve position.
  • CN 109028023 describes how a change of the steam load of a marine boiler is controlled by sending signals to a PLC regulating the feed water valve. The water level and the steam flow are measured. The steam flow rate is introduced as a feed forward control signal. When the steam load suddenly changes, the steam flow rate signal causes the feed water regulating valve to initially move in the correct direction, i.e. when steam flow is increased, the feed water regulating valve is opened. A vortex flow meter is used for monitoring the load.
  • US 7931041 describes a method for controlling a liquid level in a boiler using filtered output signals representing liquid level, gas/steam flow rate, feed-liquid flow rate, vessel pressure and vessel temperature.
  • US 10323547 describes a steam level control system of a boiler measuring the position of a bypass valve bypassing a heat recovery steam generator.
  • JP 2018080672 describes a steam turbine control device having a steam control valve opening degree detector. It does not relate to the supply of feed water into the boiler.
  • the above object is realized in a first aspect of the present invention by a method of controlling a supply of feed water into a boiler, as described in claim 1, the boiler comprising a feed water inlet for supplying feed water into the boiler, a steam outlet for taking steam from the boiler and a liquid level sensor for measuring a liquid level in the boiler, the steam outlet comprising a steam valve defining a steam valve opening degree, the method comprising:
  • the boiler includes a vessel for accommodating water and steam.
  • the water is supplied to the boiler via the feed water inlet.
  • the stream is generated by heat input into the vessel.
  • the steam is taken out of the boiler via the steam outlet.
  • the steam outlet is controlled by a steam valve defining a steam valve opening degree.
  • the steam generated may be used for operating a steam turbine or other types of steam consumers.
  • the boiler also including the liquid level sensor.
  • the liquid level sensor measures the liquid level in the boiler. Below the liquid level the vessel comprises a two-phase flow comprising liquid water and steam bubbles and above the liquid level the vessel essentially comprises steam.
  • the liquid level in the boiler is normally controlled by adjusting the supply of feed water into the boiler by means of a feed pump and/or valve in response to the measured liquid level in the boiler using a control scheme.
  • a feed pump and/or valve in response to the measured liquid level in the boiler using a control scheme.
  • the boiler pressure will drop. This leads to steam bubbles suspended in the liquid water being released, whereby the liquid level will initially swell.
  • the liquid level in the boiler rises initially and then drops as more steam is taken out of the boiler.
  • a naive controller e.g. simple PID which does not take the swell phenomenon into consideration
  • the response to the initial increased liquid level in the boiler will be that the water feed into the boiler is decreased, which will subsequently lead to too low liquid level of water in the boiler as more steam is taken out of the boiler. This may potentially lead to a damage of the boiler due to low liquid level.
  • the initial response should be to increase the water feed to counter the increased taking out of steam from the boiler.
  • the signal representing the opening degree of the steam valve and the signal representing the liquid level in the boiler is used to determine the supply of feed water into the boiler.
  • the reference liquid level for the boiler is a constant which represents the normal liquid level under steady state conditions and is determined by the design of the boiler.
  • From the signal representing the opening degree of the steam valve a rate of change of the steam valve opening degree is determined and used to compensate the inverse response to the disturbance, i.e. the drop of the liquid level when the steam load increases.
  • the rate of change of the steam valve opening degree is zero when the steam valve opening degree is constant, i.e. when the steam valve is still and the steam load is constant.
  • the rate of change of the steam valve opening degree is non-zero.

  • the feed water valve in the feed water line can be omitted.
  • the flow rate is based on the rotational speed of a pump.
  • the rotational speed of a pump may be changed
  • the controlling of the supply of feed water into the boiler is performed using a PI control scheme.
  • the control action is designed to minimize the adverse effect of a change in the disturbance.

  • the rate of change of the steam valve opening degree signal can be added to the control action in a feed-forward manner, i.e. after the controller, on basis of which the opening degree of the feed valve (or alternatively the flow/speed of the feed pump) is controlled.
  • the corrective term to the feed water control action is introduced immediately when the disturbance occurs without having to wait for the water level to drop before the controller takes corrective action.

  • the rate of change of the steam valve opening degree signal can alternatively be added in a feed-back manner, i.e. added to the measured liquid level before the controller, on basis of which the opening degree of the feed valve (or alternatively the speed of the feed pump) is controlled. In this way the corrective term to the feed water control input is introduced into the controller which takes corrective action.
  • the controller typically use a linear siso control scheme to generate the control action.
  • the controller is preferably a PI controller and the control action is preferably a PI control action.
  • the method comprises determining the rate of change of the steam valve opening degree by using a phase-lead filter on the steam valve opening degree.
  • the opening degree of the water feed is controlled by disturbance compensation in the water level control provided by a lead filter.
